- Pour water out of thermoserver then add pasta to it.
Quickly whisk eggs and add to hot pasta with Parmesan. Mix around quickly which cooks your eggs without scrambling them. - Disclaimer: This is a mash up of 4 different recipes from thermomix and other sources, trying to find a one pot wonder with all the flavour of the original. the eggs are cooked gently by the residual heat of the pasta, there are no raw eggs in this dish. If pregnant and concerned about undercooked eggs, just leave them out but they do add protein and a texture that is unique to carbonara!
Tip
You can add mushrooms with the bacon, less or more cream, Parmesan,and eggs according to taste. You may need slightly more water depending on how much pasta you use. Play around with what suits your family best!

Recipe is created forTM 5
If you are using a Thermomix® TM6 measuring cup with your Thermomix® TM5:
For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.Please note that the TM5 mixing bowl has a larger capacity than the TM31 (capacity of 2.2 liters instead of 2.0 liters for TM 31). Recipes for the Thermomix TM5 may not be cooked with a Thermomix TM31 for safety reasons without adjusting the quantities. Risk of scalding by spraying of hot liquids: Do not exceed the maximum filling quantity and observe the filling level markings of the mixing bowl!

Yummo. Enjoyed by the whole family. I just added the cream with the water. Also had leftover cheese sauce which we added and made for extra creamy deliciousness. Only had half the bacon but it was still enough.
Brookie82:the water and stock get added with the pasta and cooked for 10 minutes before checking pasta and adding cream. After bacon is cooked with onion and garlic for 10 minutes. Sorry I'll try to edit recipe it's been a minute.
I agree with the last comment. The recipe is unclear about where to add the water and pasta initially.. I ended up cooking the pasta on the stovetop which kinda defeated the purpose, but it tasted great!
Sorry to ask a silly question... Does the water get added in with the bacon, garlic and onion? Then the cream gets added the water, garlic, onion, bacon mixture... and cook for further 3-5 mins all together? Thermo Newbie and just want to make sure I am reading it correctly. Sounds delicious!
More mushrooms and add later. Reverse 0.5 probably better. Used mixture of shells and spaghetti. Needed the extra cook time. Used 100ml tub of really thick cream with 150ml of milk. Perfect. Used 2 chicken stock cubes in 900 boiling water and could perhaps has used 1000ml as was very thick. Delicious
Allycat2324:yes it does. Read carefully
Used stock paste, and pretty much just halved everything and reduced cooking by 20%ish. Used spaghetti and pancetta instead of bacon, coz that's what I had.
Thank you, for a great recipe!
This was absolutely perfect! Restaurant quality
What a great recipe, it is just so quick and easy. My Dad loves it - it’s always in the request list for meals to be made 👍🏻
I really loved this quick and easy and very creamy. The only thing is the stock is a lil to salty for me will do 1 tablespoon next time. I also just mixed the eggs in the thermomix for a minute on speed 1 just letting the heat cool down on its own.
thanks for sharing
